Perpetual

[No lyrics]

. . .



I'd rather live than just imagine
Don't think there is a way around
And if I fail I'll still be standing
With my feet firmly on the ground

Through my window from the sky
Flows a lullabye
Someone's waiting in my dream
Taking me to places I've never seen

If I had some wings then I could fly (Dragonfly)
In my dreams
I am the Dragonfly (Dragonfly)

I guess I always will be searching
I live and learn from my mistakes
And all the love that I've expecting
Is equal to the love I make

Little dreamer when evening falls. Shadows fall
Bring some honey for my soul
Take me to the places I've never been

If I had some wings then I could fly (Dragonfly)
In my dreams I am the Dragonfly (Dragonfly)


. . .



Getting dressed for the masquerade
To be the main attraction
Might become someone someday
With the right connection
You might find the night so lonely
But you're not the only one
I just wanna go with ecstasy
To the river of love I run

Teaser you set my heart on fire
Teaser put out the flames of my desire

If you let me stay inside
I give satisfaction
In the night lose our way
In the turned of love I ride

Teaser you set my heart on fire
Teaser put out the flames of my desire

Ohh I guess we all need someone

Teaser you set my heart on fire
Teaser put out the flames of my desire


. . .



In this wasteland without any shadows
There is no water for my dusty throat
There is no rainbow days filled with silent sorrow
And for our sin there are no antidotes

Eternal sand
There is no end to this no man's land
We all must pay
For the piper we dance while he plays

How many miles to Babylon
How many years musi I carry on

In this our endless searching for the Holy Grail
There is no sleep gor the souls who find no rest
Ships of the desert without rigs or sails
Flotsam and Jetsam floating from the west

Eternal sand
There is no end to this no man's land
We all must pay
For the piper we dance while he plays

How many miles to Babylon
How many years musi I carry on


. . .



There's a time for all our innocence
When the tears aren't far away
And a time build a strong defense
When the boy's too old to play

And we learn the hard way
Day by day
Giving in but always coming back for more
And we cry no more... cry no more

There's a time for games and visions
And the stake is more or less
There's a time for fast decisions
When our dreams become success

We do anything to raise that score
Cause the end will aways justify the means
And we cry no more

Cry no more... and we cry no more etc.

Our year's in misery
Made dreams reality. Ohh
And we cry no more etc.

Cry no more... and we cry no more etc


. . .



You say you're always right and I'm wrong
You tell me I am weak and you are strong
Always tried so hard
Now you've gone too far
I'll give all or nothing now to play my cards

You pretend it's for fun
In the end when it's done
You might say it's a game
But I will show no mercy

You talk so much but you don't have a clue
You lie so much you even think it's tru
Now I'm in the lead
Want to see you bleed
Say goodbye I am forever in control

You must learn oh so well
You shall burn in my hell
You might say it's a game
I will show no mercy

And now it's said and done it's all completed
You think you've won you know you are defeated
Now it's all so clear
I'm your greatest fear
You have lived a lie be prepared to die

You must learn oh so well
You shall burn in my hell
You might say it's a game
I will show no mercy


. . .



Fighting the odds while we still have time
There is a limit don't cross that line
It's no good with water we cannot drink
We're a ship about to sink

We pray but the walls is just too high
We pay with our lives to the dark tower in the sky

C'est la vie life in the shadows
C'est la vie there's no tomorrow

Give us back the blue blue sky
Where the air is so fresh where eagles fly
What good is a planet that's slowly dying
What kind of life can it bring

We pray but the walls is just too high
We pay with our lives to the dark tower in the sky

C'est la vie life in the shadows
C'est la vie there's no tomorrow


. . .

Leviathan

[No lyrics]

. . .



Everyday is like a set up race
And the world is still a lonely place
To be or not to be is this the final quiz

A flash in the pan goodbye
Still shooting for the open sky
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
I cannot find a compromise

It's still just treason
They bring me down with their lies
Don't know the reason
My life is fire and ice

Tomorrow will be different
All you need is just come confidence
I dream of being a warrior
So far beyond

There's a voice that whispers I can fail
I believe it's just a trick of the tail
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
There is no way no compromise

It's still just treason
They bring me down with their lies
Don't know the reason
My life is fire and ice


. . .



Today I read in a book that some are meant
to live forever
There's also a nightmare where our dying
has no end
If I let my will surrender and my flesh be crucified
In his name my sins will be sublime

Forever is a long long time

It's said love is a gift that's given if we're
true believers
Just make your body and your sold his receivers
In this world those golden rules
May seem like they're made for fools
Puppets on a string that blessing can bring

Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long long time

But now the wine has turned sour after all these
years of fighting
So many wars but still his kingdom is not striking
Pray for your enemy
And love without agony
Always ready for his day to come

Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long time


. . .



From now on I'm dancing with myself
To the sound of a blue and broken string
Left behind with the dust upon a shelf
The remains of a long forgotten song

All that we had but now again
I stand alone all love has an end

You cannot see this is my destiny
I'm my own enemy
In my life there was no-one like you
You cannot see this is my reality
I'm my own enemy
In my life there was no'one like you

From now on I'm sleeping with my shadow
In the night my thoughts can be my own
All the pain and all this endless sorrow
I miss you more than I will ever know

Holding you never again
It cannot be all love has an end

You cannot see this is my destiny
I'm my own enemy
In my life there was no-one like you
You cannot see this is my reality
I'm my own enemy
In my life there was no'one like you

Now I know there is no-one that is waiting
At the end of that long and widing road
Memories in the dead of night are calling
All the way I carry on my heavy load

All that we had but now again
I satnd alone all love had an end

You cannot see this is my destiny
I'm my own enemy
In my life there was no-one like you
You cannot see this is my reality
I'm my own enemy
In my life there was no'one like you


. . .



Before me eyes the world is falling
But through all lies
I feel my calling
They always said that I can't do it
But even so I walked right through it

Why can't you see
The way that it must be
You think you're so strong
You know that you are wrong

Come on woman
Just gimme a touch
You gotta know I'm not asking too much
Once a king always a king
All I want is everything

You always thought that you were so cool
You used to say that I was a fool
And all this time you were just a tool
You couldn't see that I made the rules

I have to feel
I know this is for real
I gotta live
I want all you can give

Come on woman
Just gimme a touch
You gotta know I'm not asking too much
Once a king always a king
All I want is everything


. . .

Golden Dawn

[No lyrics]

. . .



What's left for me to see
In my ship I sailed so far
What can the answer be
Don't know what the questions are

And after all I've done
Still I cannot feel the sun
Tell me save me
In the end our lost souls must repent

I must know it is for certain
Can it be the final curtain
As long as the wind will blow
I'll be searching high and low

Who knows what's really true
They say the end is so near
Why are we all so cruel
We just fill ourselves with fear

And heaven and hell will turn
All that we love shall burn
Hear me trust me
In the end our lost souls must repent

I must know it is for certain
Can it be the final curtain
As long as the wind will blow
I'll be searching high and low

Final curtain
Final curtain


. . .


I paid the piper with my song
For all the times I've done you wrong
I watched the devil get his due
And I knew that was for you

It breaks my heart
Our time has passed by telling lies
I fall apart
Like broken glass on shattered ice

We gave up our love within
To keep ourselves from giving in
I know my world will always turn
When you burn, you'll live and learn

Like an intruder in your arms
I never meant to do you harm
I know my song, it will remain
All the same, I feel the pain
